Japan Macro Salon with Jesper and Bill - July 2023

In the fifth of their regular quarterly webinars on business and current affairs, Japan Society chairman Bill Emmott teamed up with Jesper Koll, longtime Tokyo resident and one of the most keenly watched economists and investment strategists in that town, to discuss what's new in the Japanese economy, business, financial markets and more. In this session, they were joined by special guest Professor Takako Hikotani, senior fellow at the Asia Society Japan and Professor of Gakushuin University. They discussed the latest developments in Japan’s game-changing defence strategy and all its budget-changing implications. Each quarter, Jesper and Bill open with a conversation about the latest trends that have caught their attention, and then welcome a special guest to focus on a topic of the moment. All the while, they will be interacting with questions from the audience. These webinars are run in association with Asia Society Japan.
